About Prologue

The Honda Prologue was an unusual alliance in metal form. Rather than develop its own electric SUV for North America in time, Honda partnered with General Motors, which built the Prologue on its Ultium battery platform at a plant in Mexico alongside the Chevrolet Blazer EV. Honda handled the styling inside and out, giving it a clean, minimalist look and a more conservative cabin than its GM cousins. It went on sale for the 2024 model year.

Critics praised its comfortable ride, roomy interior and competitive range, while noting that its infotainment and some components were borrowed from GM. Buyers liked it more than many expected; with generous lease deals and incentives, the Prologue became one of the best-selling electric SUVs from a traditional automaker in the U.S. for a time. But as EV incentives faded and Honda reassessed its electric strategy, it confirmed that the Prologue would be discontinued, leaving the brand without a fully electric model in America.

The Prologue competed with the Chevrolet Equinox EV and Blazer EV, Ford Mustang Mach-E, Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6, Toyota bZ and Tesla Model Y. Its end raises questions about Honda's electric future, including its own 0 Series EVs. This page follows the aftermath: discounts and remaining inventory, used-market values, recalls, owner experiences and what Honda plans next for electric vehicles in North America, where its own Ohio-built electric models were meant to take over from the GM partnership.
